I having been taking Orlistat for a few week. Today I had 1 egg on toast and flake. I later on developed severe chest pain. I took aspirin because I thought I may be having a heart attack. I took Gavison and 2 Paracetamol and the pain gradually went away. It took about 1 hour to ago. I will not be taking Orlistat too scare of experiencing that pain again. Will eat less and excerise as I need to loss for 4 stone.

    Take your time and do not rush the weight loss. If you work to lose weight over time, it will be more healthy for you.
